双语灵修（葛培理牧师）：11月30日 与主同在

11月30日

与主同在

使我认识基督，晓得他复活的大能，并且晓得和他一同受苦……

——腓力比书3:10

宾惠廉曾写道，“即使没有殉道者的冠冕，也要有一颗殉道者的心。”对基督徒来说，受欢迎和受谄媚其危险性远比受逼迫大得多。当一切顺利的时候，我们会很容易失去平衡感而使观点偏颇。重要的是要与神同行，为主而活，有为讨主喜悦而奉献的激情。然后，无论发生何事，我们都要知道祂允许这事发生，为要教会我们一些宝贵的功课，为要使我们更加完全以完成神的工作。祂也会给我们各种环境，无论是愉快的还是不愉快的，祂都与我们同在。

今日祷告

主啊，我的灵渴望更加爱祢，也更加认识祢。请求祢的宽恕，我的眼目有时离开祢。奉主耶稣基督的圣名，阿们！

His Presence

That I may know him,and the power of his resurrection,and the fellowship of his sufferings…

—Philippians 3:10

W.C.Burns of India wrote,“Oh to have a martyr’s heart,if not a martyr’s crown.”Popularity and adulation are far more dangerous for the Christian than persecution.It is easy,when all goes smoothly,to lose our sense of balance and our perspective.The important thing is to walk with Christ,to live for Christ,and to have one consuming passion—to please Him.Then,whatever happens,we know that He has permitted it in order to teach us some priceless lesson and to perfect us for His service.He will enrich our circumstances,be they pleasant or disagreeable,by the fact of His presence with us.

Prayer for the day

Lord,my soul wants to love and know You far more deeply.Forgive the times I have set my eyes on things that keep me from You.
